An illustrated book describing the most famous battles of all time, which shattered Napoleon's dreams of invading England. Amplifying the accounts of the battle is a lengthy selection of contemporary eye-witness accounts. It is not just the story of the morning and afternoon in which Nelson and Collingwood smashed the combined fleets of France and Spain, but also that of a complex campaign of which Trafalgar was the climax. It shows that the protagonists were not Admirals Villeneuve and Nelson, but Napoleon and the British naval tradition.
